Georgia and Emmy thought they were coming to see Twilight but were happy when they found out they would be seeing some “proper movies”

Jenny, Danica and Brooklyn lined up for 12 hours to get their prime seats for #Noscars2013.

K’Shana, Tharushi and Panashe all found the films tots amazing and indicated they would still be attending future Noscars when they are in their sixties.

In the Sold Out Embassy seats were fought over. Often conflict was solved through film trivia battles.

The 2013 Noscars was another outstandingly successful night showcasing the sensational film making talent within the college. The night opened with an introduction video that got everyone into the spirit of the evening:

The seventeen films on display were all very well received. You can see the films as they are posted by the filmmakers on the Newlands Media Facebook Page. The Noscars trophies were presented as follows:

And the ultimate prize of the Noscar for best film went to:

Forget Me Not is an outstanding film, a mature look at ageing and the fear of growing beyond our memories. One of the most remarkable things about the film is how it has tapped into some universal ideas meaning the film had an impact on the whole audience, including its youngest members.

The Y12s were surprised when only two people in this photo remembered to do the V sign.

Unmesh and Josh attended their first Noscars and were more impressed than they were by the VMAs.

Ben thought long and hard about the film ‘This is Not a Pipe’, particularly how the title screen contained a picture of a pipe.

Some audience members were inspired by ‘Walk This Way’ and decided to practice.

Some say this is photoshopped. Others in the know are aware that the Academy Awards photoshopped it from us.
